Re: [sdx-developers] Herein Thesaurus

[Jos Snellings]

Bonjour Martin,

Thank you for the response. My next question is, of course:
what is the proper way of forwarding our proposal to ADNX?

Kind regards,
Jos Snellings (for the Herein Thesaurus group)

Jos,

First : great news and thanks for your proposal!

Here are a few comments...

This is the right approach, IMHO.

Yes.

Yes.

I am not sure what you mean here, but two things are important:

- the evolution of SDX is under the responsibility of a non-profit
association, ADNX, ant not under the responsibility of AJLSM

- I am pretty sure that ADNX would be pleased to work in this direction
(and at least AJLSM would consider this as a very valuable addition)

> - the module is made available to all SDX-users who wish to use it

Great!

> - the module can be fully integrated in a future version of SDX

Great! By the way, and for others, you can make available some code that
works with SDX without "donating" and "integrating" this code within SDX.

If you need help or clarification on the thesaurus
functionalities/interfaces/classes in SDX, don't hesitate to ask here!
